Dutch police look on as Greenpeace activists aboard inflatable boats paint 'No Arctic Oil' on the side of the Mikhail Ulyanov oil tanker in Rotterdam, Netherlands, on Thursday, May 1, 2014. Greenpeace International activists are attempting to prevent a Russian tanker carrying the first oil from a new offshore platform in the Arctic from mooring at Rotterdam Port. The environmental group said Thursday it has sent two ships, Rainbow Warrior III and Esperanza, plus rubber rafts, paragliders and activists on shore, to meet the Mikhail Ulyanov, a tanker chartered by Russia's state-controlled oil company, Gazprom OAO.
